Confederacy Prints Stamp
To be Used as Small Change...

Faced with a shortage of coins, the Confederacy printed 20¢ Washington stamps to be used primarily as currency.  The historic stamp was also used postally to pay the 20-cent overweight double-letter rate.  Pairs paid the 40-cent Trans-Mississippi rate.  However, postal use was rare – and as you can see, genuine examples are scarce and command higher prices.
